Understanding active phases across interfaces, interphases, and even within the bulk under varying external conditions environmental species is critical for advancing heterogeneous catalysis. Describing these through computational models faces challenges in generation calculation of a vast array atomic configurations. Here, we present framework automatic efficient exploration phases. This approach utilizes topology-based algorithm leveraging persistent homology to systematically sample configurations diverse coordination environments material morphologies. Simultaneously, machine learning force fields enable rapid computations. We demonstrate effectiveness this two systems: hydrogen absorption Pd, where penetrates subsurface layers bulk, inducing "hex" reconstruction CO2 electroreduction, explored 50,000 sampled configurations; oxidation dynamics Pt clusters, oxygen incorporation renders clusters less during reduction reactions, investigated 100,000 In both cases, predicted their impacts on catalytic mechanisms closely align with previous experimental observations, indicating that proposed strategy can model complex systems discovery specific conditions. Discovering heterocatalysis entails configuration sampling optimization. authors developed based topology effectively explore structures, applied electroreduction Oxygen Reduction Reaction

Design for highly selective catalysts CO2 electroreduction to multicarbon (C2+) fuels is pressing and important. There is, however, presently a poor understanding of selectivity toward C2+ species. Here we report the first time method judiciously combined quantum chemical computations, artificial-intelligence (AI) clustering, experiment development model relationship between product composition oxidized Cu-based catalysts. We 1) evidence that Cu surface more significantly facilitates C-C coupling, 2) confirm critical potential condition(s) this oxidation state under different metal doping components viaab initio thermodynamics computation, 3) establish an inverted-volcano experimental Faradaic efficiency using multidimensional scaling (MDS) results based on physical properties dopant elements, 4) demonstrate design electrocatalysts selectively generate product(s) through co-doping strategy early late transition metals. conclude combination theoretical AI can be used practically relationships descriptors complex reactions.

Electrochemical coupling between carbon and nitrogen species to generate high-value C-N products, including urea, presents significant economic environmental potentials for addressing the energy crisis. However, this electrocatalysis process still suffers from limited mechanism understanding due complex reaction networks, which restricts development of electrocatalysts beyond trial-and-error practices. In work, we aim improve mechanism. This goal was achieved by constructing activity selectivity landscape on 54 MXene surfaces density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Our results show that step is largely determined *CO adsorption strength (Ead-CO), while relies more co-adsorption *N (Ead-CO Ead-N). Based these findings, propose an ideal catalyst should satisfy moderate stable adsorption. Through machine learning-based approach, data-driven formulas describing relationship Ead-CO Ead-N with atomic physical chemistry features were further identified. identified formula, 162 materials screened without time-consuming DFT Several potential catalysts predicted good performance, such as Ta2W2C3. The candidate then verified study has incorporated learning methods first time provide efficient high-throughput screening method selective electrocatalysts, could be extended a wider range electrocatalytic reactions facilitate green chemical production.

Acidic CO2 electroreduction reaction (CO2RR) shows advantages in high carbon utilization efficiency yet encounters great challenges suppressing undesired hydrogen evolution competition and increasing C2+ product selectivity. Although it is known that Cu0/Cu+ interfaces are conducive to C–C coupling processes, the oxidation state of copper cannot be well maintained under strong reductive condition large current electrolysis operation. Herein, we propose an I2 addition involved strategy protect Cu promote dynamic during acidic CO2RR. With electrolyte, a Faraday above 70% can achieved at 0.4–0.6 A cm–2 even low K+ concentration 0.3 M, which comparable those reported performances with almost ten times higher concentrations (2–3 M). This electrolytes significantly avoids salt crystallization transport channel enhance electrolyzer's stability. As proved by surface Pourbaix diagram experimental results, adding excessive into electrolyte boosts generation CuI; also, CuI metallic coexist electrochemical reduction conditions, demonstrating redox loop → exists. The holds key constructing interface, tightly bound adsorption *CO intermediate further promotes process.

The electrochemical NO reduction reaction (NORR) is a promising approach for both nitrogen cycle regulation and ammonia synthesis. Due to the relatively low concentration of source poor solubility in solution, mass transfer limitation serious but easily overlooked issue. In this work, porous carbon-supported ultrafine Cu clusters grown on nanowire arrays (defined as Cu@Cu/C NWAs) are prepared low-concentration NORR. A high Faradaic efficiency (93.0%) yield rate (1180.5 μg h–1 cm–2) realized NWAs at −0.1 V vs reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE), which far superior those other reported performances under similar conditions. construction carbon support can effectively decrease diffusion kinetics promote coverage subsequent highly effective conversion. Moreover, favorable metal–support interaction between enhances adsorption decreases barrier *HNO formation comparison with that pure NWAs. Overall, whole NORR be fully strengthened concentrations.
